This was the original Seminole Heights blog with commentary about life in and around the urban neighborhood of Seminole Heights in Tampa, Florida. Musings about other topics as my mood permits.

So I have been out driving around and came home wanting to see what the elections results where. TV was showing the regularly scheduled shows. Where are the elections? Where are the elections. Quick go to the Internet. Zip to WTVT, WTSP, WFLA and etc. Hmmm on many of these I have to select each race individually. Not good enough. I want to be able to scan all the races. So I check the Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections election results. Aaah yes. All races locally one one page. There we go. Time for nail biting.

It figures that someone as ethically challenged and as corrupt as Kevin White would be able to pull of a victory in a place like East Tampa where the majority of the population doesn't read the newspapers. It is also very ironic that Kevin's support base comes from the larger black right-wing churches in East Tampa. This exactly why East Tampa continues to be East Tampa: poor, crime ridden and with no hope for a better future!!! How very SAD.

Thanks for the information on the results, I too was scrambling to see results. I finally found Phylis Busanski mentioned in the Bilirakis results in the Times.

As for Kevin White critics, I went to a forum where he, Admire and Coney, were asked questions.Kevin, was articulate, informed and sounded very knowledgable and professional.Cloey, sounded stumbling and well aware, caring and honest. (I voted for her.)Admire, sounded like a talking head. Bla, Bla, Bla. A lot of words with no content. Boring!The other guy I could not understand.

The Florida Sentinel & The La Gaceta are not fit to wrap fish. The Florida Sentinel has done more to set Black people back than any single institution in Tampa. It is run by a family that has used every opportunity to exploit its community for personal gain. Yes, I am Black. My Intelligent Hispanic friends feel the same way about the La Gaceta.

Coney and the CDC should sue Kevin White and the Florida Sentinel for libel. Joe Robinson should be dealt with for the frivolous complaints that he made, too. The Sentinel posted an article about Robinson's complaints making them look like they actually amounted to something equal to Kevins wrong doing. It was like "Look, Kevin did only three things wrong, but Chloe did five." I wonder if they will recommend that Bozo for City Council.
